Christmas with Grandmama

Today began our first official Christmas celebration. Since Grandmama is leaving for California soon, she came over tonight for a Christmas dinner. First she spent some time with the kids while mom took a much needed nap (thanks!).
What were they doing? Playing with the Charlie Brown Christmas app on the ipad, of course!
Sleepyhead Morgan finally awoke from her nap in time to cuddle with Grandmama.

After a delicious dinner and dessert, it was time to open some gifts!
Morgan got her first official baby doll. She loved it!

Taylor couldn't wait to open her new Hello Kitty Lego house and start playing with it. You can always tell when she really likes a toy, because she is ready to leave whatever hustle and bustle is occurring downstairs and retreat to her room with her new treasure.
Before bed, Grandmama showed her how to make friendship bracelets on her new kit. She got the hang of it pretty quickly.
It was a nice evening. Now it's time for this mama to go to bed! Here's hoping that extra hour the kids stayed up causes them to sleep in tomorrow.
